Our clients were a young girl and her parents, and the case involved the labor and delivery of the young girl. The medical personnel attending the birth failed to recognize non-reassuring signs and the mother was allowed to continue in labor until the baby had suffered asphyxia prior to birth. The young girl, who was very engaging and is described by her therapists as being extremely intelligent, diligent and highly motivated, suffered neurological impairments (including spastic quadriparetic cerebral palsy), and a very limited ability to communicate.
